1
00:00:01,336 --> 00:00:04,339
Long ago in a distant land,

2
00:00:04,631 --> 00:00:08,968
I, Aku, the shape-shifting
master of darkness,

3
00:00:09,385 --> 00:00:12,972
unleashed an unspeakable evil.

4
00:00:13,139 --> 00:00:18,394
But a foolish samurai warrior
wielding a magic sword

5
00:00:18,686 --> 00:00:21,314
stepped forth to oppose me.

6
00:00:24,526 --> 00:00:29,155
Before the final blow was struck,
I tore open a portal in time

7
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:33,826
and flung him into the future
where my evil is law.

8
00:00:34,202 --> 00:00:38,122
Now the fool seeks to return to the past

9
00:00:38,289 --> 00:00:43,086
and undo the future that is Aku.

Nice and slow.

45
00:04:37,779 --> 00:04:40,072
That's right. Put the butter knife away.

46
00:04:40,198 --> 00:04:42,241
Come on. Move it before we throw you out.

47
00:04:42,325 --> 00:04:44,243
Wait. Let him stay.

48
00:04:54,086 --> 00:04:56,464
It's okay. Let him go. See? Yah.

49
00:04:57,840 --> 00:04:59,801
You know, we could use a guy like you.

50
00:05:00,259 --> 00:05:02,720
- "We?"
- Me and the boys, see?

51
00:05:03,054 --> 00:05:07,850
Stitches, Mr. Shine,
Mr. Pibbles, and Knuckles.

52
00:05:08,476 --> 00:05:10,686
Yeah, well, actually,
my real name is Joe--

53
00:05:11,062 --> 00:05:12,647
Mr. Pibbles.

54
00:05:13,606 --> 00:05:16,776
What exactly does your organization do?

55
00:05:17,318 --> 00:05:18,319
Why, me and the boys,

56
00:05:18,402 --> 00:05:20,780
we sort of run things around this town.

57
00:05:20,863 --> 00:05:22,782
Know what I mean? Yah. Yah.

58
00:05:23,115 --> 00:05:24,367
Say, how'd you like to...

59
00:05:24,784 --> 00:05:26,619
It's all right. You can put 'em down now.

60
00:05:28,246 --> 00:05:32,333
How'd you like to be a member of
the most feared gang in the city, see?

61
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:36,128
What activities does
your "gang" participate in?

62
00:05:36,838 --> 00:05:38,631
Stitches, break it down for him.

63
00:05:38,881 --> 00:05:40,258
Um.

64
00:05:40,967 --> 00:05:42,927
We, uh, fix things.

65
00:05:43,344 --> 00:05:44,470
Know what I mean?

66
00:05:45,137 --> 00:05:47,807
Make sure the money goes
to the right places around here.

67
00:05:47,890 --> 00:05:50,852
The horses, casinos, banks.

68
00:05:51,269 --> 00:05:52,478
You follow?

69
00:05:53,729 --> 00:05:55,481
You are involved in crime.

70
00:05:58,860 --> 00:06:00,403
Now, did I say that?

71
00:06:00,945 --> 00:06:02,321
Enough has been said.

72
00:06:02,822 --> 00:06:04,866
Your activities are of no interest to me.

73
00:06:05,408 --> 00:06:07,368
I wish to be no part of your group.

74
00:06:11,289 --> 00:06:13,499
So, a prima donna, eh?

75
00:06:18,379 --> 00:06:19,672
Get out of here. Go on.

76
00:06:19,755 --> 00:06:20,923
Beat it, altar boy.

77
00:06:22,758 --> 00:06:24,594
- What? Are you crazy?
- Are you out of your mind?

78
00:06:24,677 --> 00:06:25,761
Nuts to do something like that.

79
00:06:25,845 --> 00:06:26,971
- Look at this guy, huh.
- I don't know.

80
00:06:27,346 --> 00:06:29,348
Well, what are you all
standing around for?

81
00:06:29,724 --> 00:06:31,434
We got a delivery to make for Aku.

82
00:06:33,269 --> 00:06:35,605
Do you mean the great and powerful Aku?

83
00:06:35,938 --> 00:06:38,149
Of course. The master of darkness.

84
00:06:38,274 --> 00:06:41,235
The shogun of sorrow.
The big boss himself. Aku.

85
00:06:41,777 --> 00:06:44,655
And you have dealings with Aku in person?

86
00:06:44,906 --> 00:06:46,449
Sure. All the time.

87
00:06:46,908 --> 00:06:48,326
What's it to you, anyway?

88
00:06:48,784 --> 00:06:50,661
Please forgive me. I thought you were--

89
00:06:50,745 --> 00:06:51,913
Small-time?

90
00:06:52,204 --> 00:06:53,414
Well, no. I, uh--

91
00:06:53,497 --> 00:06:57,376
Ah, so now Mr. Goody two-sandals
feels like talking, eh?

92
00:06:57,543 --> 00:06:58,628
Please understand.

93
00:06:58,961 --> 00:07:02,381
I have spent my lifetime preparing to come
face-to-face with Aku.

94
00:07:02,632 --> 00:07:05,468
Fulfilling this goal would
forever change my life.

95
00:07:13,225 --> 00:07:15,186
Okay, boy, we'll give you a shot.

96
00:07:16,562 --> 00:07:20,107
But, uh, you gotta pass
a little test first, see? Yah.

97
00:07:20,274 --> 00:07:22,443
You know, to prove
you got the stomach for it.

98
00:07:24,612 --> 00:07:26,030
All right. Here's the skinny.

99
00:07:26,322 --> 00:07:29,784
It's not a hard job, but your heart's
gotta be in the right place, see?

100
00:07:29,992 --> 00:07:33,955
One of our clients, see, hasn't been
paying his protection money, yah.

101
00:07:34,246 --> 00:07:35,665
So he needs to be rubbed out.

102
00:07:52,807 --> 00:07:54,183
Now you tell him that The Society

103
00:07:54,266 --> 00:07:55,935
for the Preservation of Animal Love

104
00:07:56,018 --> 00:07:58,854
has sent a surprise gift, yah,

105
00:07:59,230 --> 00:08:02,692
as a token of appreciation
for his ongoing love of animals, see?

106
00:08:03,067 --> 00:08:05,569
Then you got about 20 seconds
to hightail it outta there

107
00:08:05,653 --> 00:08:06,779
and then it's bang.

108
00:08:08,114 --> 00:08:09,573
The gift that keeps on giving.

109
00:08:13,828 --> 00:08:15,663
Well, kid, how'd it go?

110
00:08:16,247 --> 00:08:18,124
It went exactly as planned.

111
00:08:18,374 --> 00:08:19,792
The old man took the package,

112
00:08:19,875 --> 00:08:22,294
I said my lines exactly
as I was supposed to.

113
00:08:22,586 --> 00:08:23,921
He never suspected a thing,

114
00:08:24,296 --> 00:08:26,841
after which I immediately
left the premises.

115
00:08:27,258 --> 00:08:28,968
He never knew what hit him.

116
00:08:29,427 --> 00:08:31,220
You should not be concerned
with any further

117
00:08:31,303 --> 00:08:33,514
payment problems with your clients.

118
00:08:33,723 --> 00:08:35,349
Pretty cold-blooded, kid.

119
00:08:35,683 --> 00:08:38,102
I'm impressed, see? Yah.

120
00:08:38,561 --> 00:08:40,813
A price must be paid for disobedience.

121
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,524
I like this guy.

122
00:08:46,652 --> 00:08:49,238
Boys, meet Jackie, the blade.

123
00:08:56,370 --> 00:08:58,456
With all the accouterments, see?

124
00:08:58,914 --> 00:09:01,333
Yeah, great. How come
he gets the cool name?

125
00:09:01,917 --> 00:09:04,045
All right, you knuckleheads, listen up.

126
00:09:04,545 --> 00:09:06,964
We're here to talk about a very big job.

127
00:09:07,465 --> 00:09:10,217
One of very special interest
to the big boss himself.

128
00:09:10,718 --> 00:09:11,761
Aku?

129
00:09:11,844 --> 00:09:13,054
That's right, Jackie.

130
00:09:13,387 --> 00:09:15,848
Now nobody's ever pulled
this one off, see?

131
00:09:16,057 --> 00:09:18,309
But with you on our side, we'll smoke it.

132
00:09:18,893 --> 00:09:20,436
And we will get to meet Aku?

133
00:09:20,811 --> 00:09:22,605
Mm-yah, not only will we get to meet him,

134
00:09:22,688 --> 00:09:24,607
but if we pull this off successfully,

135
00:09:24,940 --> 00:09:29,153
the big boss will make us
richer beyond our wildest dreams, see?

136
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:33,491
Boys, say hello to
the Public Works and Utilities building.

137
00:09:33,699 --> 00:09:34,742
Hello!

138
00:09:37,661 --> 00:09:40,498
It's a well kept secret that
deep inside this building

139
00:09:40,581 --> 00:09:43,084
lies the legendary Neptune jewel, see?

140
00:09:43,501 --> 00:09:45,336
And it's our job to get it out.

141
00:09:45,795 --> 00:09:48,255
You mean, uh, we gotta fit
inside that little thing?

142
00:09:49,632 --> 00:09:51,550
What is the importance of this jewel?

143
00:09:52,218 --> 00:09:54,178
Here's the short version, Jackie.

144
00:09:54,428 --> 00:09:57,932
Long before you was born,
or I was born, or anybody was born,

145
00:09:58,182 --> 00:10:01,102
the Neptune jewel was kept
inside this mountain, see?

146
00:10:01,352 --> 00:10:04,313
Now legend has it, it was placed there
by an ancient spirit

147
00:10:04,396 --> 00:10:06,440
who gave the jewel special powers
that would give it control

148
00:10:06,565 --> 00:10:09,443
over all the waters
of the world, see? Yah.

149
00:10:10,236 --> 00:10:12,238
Naturally, Aku wanted the jewel's power

150
00:10:12,321 --> 00:10:14,949
so evil could control
the world, which it should.

151
00:10:15,616 --> 00:10:16,742
But then this no-good

152
00:10:16,826 --> 00:10:20,162
goody two-shoes good-for-nothing
got in the way, see? Yah.

153
00:10:20,496 --> 00:10:23,207
I don't know how she did it,
but she beat our boss.

154
00:10:26,961 --> 00:10:29,463
And she summoned the forces
of nature to guard it.

155
00:10:30,381 --> 00:10:31,465
Earth...

156
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:35,886
wind...

157
00:10:42,268 --> 00:10:43,394
and fire.

158
00:10:47,148 --> 00:10:48,899
And so earth, wind, and fire

159
00:10:48,983 --> 00:10:51,569
have guarded the jewel
for centuries, see? Yah.

160
00:10:52,111 --> 00:10:54,864
Making it impossible for Aku
to get his hands on it.

161
00:10:55,156 --> 00:10:57,741
And since the big boss himself
couldn't close the deal,

162
00:10:57,825 --> 00:11:00,161
it's been centuries since anybody's even
thought about it.

163
00:11:00,286 --> 00:11:01,662
So, you see, see?

164
00:11:01,829 --> 00:11:05,166
You'd have to be pretty nuts
to try to swipe the Neptune jewel, yah.

165
00:11:05,499 --> 00:11:07,418
At least that's what I thought...

166
00:11:07,918 --> 00:11:10,087
until I saw Jackie here in action.

167
00:11:10,546 --> 00:11:13,132
The way you cleaned up
them robot thugs back at the Blue Monkey

168
00:11:13,215 --> 00:11:16,302
made me think we're just nuts enough
to pull this one off.

169
00:11:16,927 --> 00:11:19,180
So, are you game, Jackie?

170
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:23,976
To stand in Aku's presence,
I would consider no feat too great.

171
00:11:27,938 --> 00:11:29,899
All right, here's the plan, Jackie.

172
00:11:30,149 --> 00:11:32,693
We strike this Sunday at midnight, see?

173
00:15:04,488 --> 00:15:07,449
You will never possess the Neptune jewel.

174
00:15:07,741 --> 00:15:09,660
You will not escape.

175
00:15:09,743 --> 00:15:10,786
Come and get me.

176
00:15:10,869 --> 00:15:12,538
Insolent fool!

177
00:16:33,911 --> 00:16:35,245
Hey, look.

178
00:16:38,165 --> 00:16:39,333
He did it!

179
00:16:44,463 --> 00:16:46,048
Hey, you did it, Jackie boy.

180
00:16:46,340 --> 00:16:47,549
How 'bout that?

181
00:16:47,633 --> 00:16:48,800
That's really something.

182
00:16:55,974 --> 00:16:57,893
Who dares to summon...

183
00:16:57,976 --> 00:16:59,770
Oh, it is you.

184
00:17:00,062 --> 00:17:02,105
Uh, yes, uh, you see, uh--

185
00:17:02,272 --> 00:17:05,734
Do you forget that you are forbidden
to come here?

186
00:17:06,109 --> 00:17:08,028
Uh, yeah, boss, I know.

187
00:17:08,111 --> 00:17:10,739
But this time we, we really got something.

188
00:17:11,031 --> 00:17:12,241
Something big, see?

189
00:17:12,533 --> 00:17:19,248
What can you possibly have
that the all-mighty Aku cannot attain?

190
00:17:21,083 --> 00:17:22,626
The jewel of Neptune.

191
00:17:23,126 --> 00:17:25,796
What? It cannot be!

192
00:17:25,921 --> 00:17:29,716
The power to control
all the water of the world!

193
00:17:30,384 --> 00:17:32,135
Only for you, my Lord.

194
00:17:32,803 --> 00:17:37,099
Yes, it truly is a magical jewel.

195
00:17:37,683 --> 00:17:43,188
But how did such an elusive treasure
come in to your possession?

196
00:17:43,772 --> 00:17:45,190
Well, it wasn't easy, master,

197
00:17:45,274 --> 00:17:48,026
but we, uh, got a little help
from our newest member.

198
00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:49,903
Come on out, Jackie.

199
00:17:49,987 --> 00:17:50,988
Jackie?

200
00:17:55,826 --> 00:17:57,828
Actually, it's Jack.

201
00:17:58,495 --> 00:17:59,705
You!

202
00:18:01,957 --> 00:18:03,917
Uh, what the heck is going on, man?

203
00:18:04,376 --> 00:18:07,588
You will not defeat me so easily.

204
00:18:09,256 --> 00:18:13,260
Yes, it won't be easy,
but it will be worth the effort.

205
00:18:17,014 --> 00:18:18,181
The sword!

206
00:18:18,765 --> 00:18:22,185
Uh, why is Jackie
fighting the big boss, boss?

207
00:18:22,644 --> 00:18:24,563
I don't know, see,

208
00:18:24,646 --> 00:18:27,232
but we better save Jackie
before he ain't no more.

209
00:18:54,468 --> 00:18:57,095
No tricks will save you this time, Aku.

210
00:19:07,105 --> 00:19:08,148
Aku?

211
00:19:08,315 --> 00:19:10,150
Easy there, Jackie boy.

212
00:19:10,233 --> 00:19:11,652
What? Where am I?

213
00:19:11,735 --> 00:19:12,861
What happened?

214
00:19:14,655 --> 00:19:16,239
Can you believe this guy?

215
00:19:16,573 --> 00:19:19,451
What happened, Jackie,
is that we saved your life.

216
00:19:20,285 --> 00:19:21,370
You what?

217
00:19:21,578 --> 00:19:23,205
Well, you see, you lost
your mind back there

218
00:19:23,288 --> 00:19:25,540
and started to duke it out
with the big boss himself.

219
00:19:25,832 --> 00:19:27,918
So, uh, we nailed you over the head, man.

220
00:19:28,001 --> 00:19:29,878
Wham!

221
00:19:30,128 --> 00:19:32,130
Lights out, and, uh, here we are.

222
00:19:32,255 --> 00:19:34,466
Yeah, and we saved you
before Aku had a chance

223
00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:36,551
to put you out of commission permanently.

224
00:19:36,968 --> 00:19:39,012
I cannot believe this!

225
00:19:39,638 --> 00:19:40,722
What's not to believe?

226
00:19:40,972 --> 00:19:43,016
We saved you like you saved us.

227
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,769
No! You do not understand!

228
00:19:45,894 --> 00:19:47,646
You must take me back immediately.

229
00:19:47,729 --> 00:19:49,147
Aren't you listening, Jackie?

230
00:19:49,231 --> 00:19:50,732
We can't take you back.

231
00:19:51,024 --> 00:19:53,485
Aku would destroy you, see? Yah.

232
00:19:53,944 --> 00:19:55,987
Besides, we couldn't even if we wanted to.

233
00:19:56,071 --> 00:19:58,407
When we dragged you out,
Aku's castle disappeared.

234
00:19:58,824 --> 00:20:00,534
Who knows where it'll pop up next?

235
00:20:11,753 --> 00:20:13,130
Hey, what's all this about, anyway?

236
00:20:13,213 --> 00:20:15,048
You got some kind of
death wish or something?

237
00:20:15,424 --> 00:20:17,300
No, you don't understand!

238
00:20:17,801 --> 00:20:19,886
I have deceived you.

239
00:20:20,470 --> 00:20:21,972
Hey, you mean, uh...

240
00:20:22,305 --> 00:20:23,724
You ain't one of us, man?

241
00:20:24,099 --> 00:20:26,017
No. You are criminals.

242
00:20:26,101 --> 00:20:27,102
It is not honorable.

243
00:20:27,185 --> 00:20:29,229
You see, long ago this land was good.

244
00:20:29,312 --> 00:20:32,065
Its people, honest, but then Aku came...

245
00:20:35,652 --> 00:20:36,945
It does not matter.

246
00:20:37,154 --> 00:20:38,613
My quest continues.

247
00:20:39,865 --> 00:20:42,409
I am sorry about the deception,
but it had to be done.

248
00:20:42,743 --> 00:20:44,494
Now, if you please, the jewel.

249
00:20:45,036 --> 00:20:46,747
Uh, we don't have it, see?

250
00:20:47,122 --> 00:20:48,707
Uh, we gave it to Aku.

251
00:20:48,957 --> 00:20:50,083
Mr. Pibbles?

252
00:20:50,417 --> 00:20:53,295
Uh...

253
00:20:53,378 --> 00:20:57,382
Yeah, during all the, uh,
commotion I, uh, I kept it,

254
00:20:57,466 --> 00:20:59,885
you know, for, uh, safe keeping.

255
00:21:00,510 --> 00:21:03,430
Thank you. I must return it
to its proper place.

256
00:21:03,638 --> 00:21:06,016
Wait, Jackie, uh, let us do it.

257
00:21:06,391 --> 00:21:09,144
- Why?
- Well, uh, all this crime business

258
00:21:09,227 --> 00:21:12,147
has suddenly put a,
a bad taste in my mouth, yah.

259
00:21:12,689 --> 00:21:14,900
Yeah, we're going legit, see? Yah.

260
00:21:15,066 --> 00:21:17,277
And for our first gig,
we're gonna return the jewel.

261
00:21:17,611 --> 00:21:20,238
It's the honorable thing to do, yah.

262
00:21:21,156 --> 00:21:24,075
I feel you will be happier
on the path of righteousness.

263
00:21:24,534 --> 00:21:25,869
Good-bye.

264
00:21:27,662 --> 00:21:29,372
Yeah, I think we will, too.

265
00:21:30,624 --> 00:21:32,000
Sucker!

266
00:21:32,334 --> 00:21:33,418
Step right up!

267
00:21:33,502 --> 00:21:35,712
Get your water right here only.

268
00:21:36,046 --> 00:21:38,590
